According to the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) standards under 29 CFR 1910, employers are required to maintain a workplace free from recognized hazards, including air contaminants which can have a negative effect on human health. Conducting indoor air quality (IAQ) assessments using EPA Indoor Air Quality Guidelines to secure compliance can help mitigate health risks and, in turn, can reduce absenteeism, enhance productivity and improve overall comfort.
